ORLANDO Fla. (Reuters) - The much-anticipated expansion of Universal Orlando’s Wizarding World of Harry Potter will open on July 8, the theme park said on Wednesday ahead of a preview of the new attraction.

The attraction, Diagon Alley, is expected to provide a boost for the park's revenues and for tourism in central Florida.
